Question to the Home Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department, when he plans to (a) respond to the consultation on and (b) publish the Domestic Violence and Abuse Bill announced in the Queens Speech on 21st July 2017.
This question was answered on 14th June 2018
On 8 March we launched a 12 week public consultation on proposals for a landmark domestic abuse Bill and a supporting package of practical action to transform the response to domestic abuse. The consultation closed on 31 May. Over 3,200 responses to the consultation were received. The responses to the consultation are being considered and a draft Bill will be published later this session.
